A New Chapter for The Fun Pimps and 7 Days to Die

I hope we end up getting 100+ unique sandbox options and not just 15-20 of them with sliders for many/most of them. Like hey, there's an ammo abundance slider with 10 scaleable options, x10 and you have 100 sandbox options!
I think they said around 50, though that was an estimate early on and it may be very different now. And that's actual options. 10 options with 10 settings is still 10 options, not 100. So 50 or so different options, each with 2 to X choices.

Fair enough, good to hear. My point though was it could easily be advertised that (being hypothetical here) 10 options with 10 variants for each is "100 unique options", which technically wouldn't be wrong, just a little disappointing. :) I have high hopes anyway that it'll turn out to be a fantastic update. It's just that, you know, the more variety, the better. :)

There are already well over 100 unique options though, admittedly, some of them are already-existing options that are mixed in. But even some of those have been reworked for better customization. For example, Rage mode was baked into whatever difficulty you chose. But now rage chance is its own unique option that can be adjusted independently of other options. I've found that with the ability to combo different individual options even many of the options we already have in the game feel new and more interesting than they did before.

At any rate there aren't any shady economics going on for the number of options. It isn't just 10 unique options with 10 settings each for a technical claim of 100+. This update isn't going to just tide us over until bandits arrive. People will still be exploring and sharing new option combinations long after bandits are old news.
